Not just another bad movie podcast, Blank Check reviews directors’ complete filmographies episode to episode. Specifically, the auteurs whose early successes afforded them the rare ‘blank check’ from Hollywood to produce passion projects. Each new miniseries, hosts Griffin Newman and David Sims delve into the works of film’s most outsized personalities in painstakingly hilarious detail. Produced by Ben Hosley.
Strap in, DobMob…we’re going to Amish Country! The Big Picture’s Amanda Dobbins joins us to talk about Peter Weir’s Witness, perhaps the zenith of Harrison Ford’s hotness, and the film that garnered him his sole Oscar nomination. We’re talking Rumspringa, birds and birdhouses (Amanda is not a fan), Philadelphia’s 30th Street Station, and young Viggo (which naturally lends itself to LOTR discussion). Listen up, or else you’ll be shunned from the Blankie community!
